5 0

Answer:

  • 200

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • Total certificates = 500
  • Math = m
  • Science = s

<u>Equations </u>

  • m+s = 500  ⇒ s = 500 - m

<u>Girls who won certificates:</u>

  • 2/3m = 50 + 3/2*1/2s
  • 2/3m = 50 + 3/4s

<u>Multiply both sides by 12 to clear fractions</u>

  • 8m = 600 + 9s

<u>Substitute s</u>

  • 8m = 600 + 9(500 - m)
  • 8m = 600 + 4500 - 9m
  • 17m = 5100
  • m = 5100/17
  • m =300

<u>Girls who won math:</u>

  • 2/3*300 = 200

Object A has 50 kg while Object B has 75 kg. They were pushed with the same amount of force. Which will have greater acceleratio
raketka [301]

Answer:

Object A will have greater acceleration.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The mass of object A = 50 kg

The mass of object B = 75 kg

They were pushed with the same amount of force.

We know that, the force acting on an object is given by :

F = ma

Here F is same for both mass

m_1a_1=m_2a_2

Mass and acceleration have inverse relation. It means the object whose mass is less will have greater acceleration. Hence, the acceleration is greater for object A.

What is the mode of the following numbers? 1,2, 10, 6, 4, 4, 6, 3, 1, 4​
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

The mode of the data set is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!
The <u>mode</u> of a data set is the most commonly occurring data value in that set.

To begin, we need to organize the data set in <u>increasing order</u>:

1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 4, 6, 6, 10

Then, we can tally the <u>frequency</u> of each data value occurring in the data set:

1 - II

2 - I

3 - I

4 - III

6 - II

10 - I

We can see that there are three occurrences for the data value 4 — which is the most frequent occurrence — so 4 is our answer.
